9、.0 ITU-T Y.3042 2013-04-13 13 Keywords Smart resource management, smart traffic control, smart ubiquitous network, SUN. ii Rec. ITU-T Y.3042 (04/2013) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and
10、 communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide bas
11、is. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resol
12、ution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration
13、and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure, e.g., interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are
14、 met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention to the pos
15、sibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the
16、 Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementers are cautioned that this may not represent the latest infor
17、mation and are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB patent database at http:/www.itu.int/ITU-T/ipr/. ITU 2014 All rights reserved.

23、t functions 1 Scope This Recommendation specifies smart traffic control and resource management functions to provide fair usage of network resources using context awareness capability in smart ubiquitous networks (SUN). This Recommendation covers the following: Motivation and objectives of smart tra
24、ffic control and resource management; Requirements for smart traffic control and resource management for SUN; High-level architecture and functional architecture; Control and management mechanisms. NOTE 1 Usage of context information is optional and the mechanism details of context awareness capabil
25、ity are outside of scope in this Recommendation. NOTE 2 Regulatory aspects of monitoring (e.g., depth of IP packet allowed to be monitored) are outside of scope in this Recommendation. NOTE 3 Traffic, means user or service provider traffic and resource, means operational status of network elements (
26、e.g., CPU usage, interface utilization, etc.) in this Recommendation. NOTE 4 Controlling traffic includes both application and network layer control. Some examples of application layer controls are video pacing, video transcoding and/or HTTP adaptive streaming (HAS). 2 References The following ITU-T

31、mendation uses the following terms defined elsewhere: 3.1.1 smart ubiquitous networks (SUN) ITU-T Y.3041: IP-based packet networks that can provide transport and delivery of a wide range of existing and emerging services to people and things. The services provided by the SUN can cover aspects such a
32、s control, processing and storage. NOTE 1 The network is smart in the sense that it is knowledgeable, context-aware, adaptable, autonomous, programmable, and can perform services effectively and securely. NOTE 2 The network is ubiquitous in the sense that it allows access anytime, anywhere, through
33、varied access technologies, access devices, including end user devices, and human-machine interfaces. 3.1.2 context ITU-T Y.3041: The information that can be used to characterize the environment of a user. 3.1.3 busy hour ITU-T E.600: The continuous 1-hour period lying wholly in the time interval co
34、ncerned for which the traffic or the number of call attempts is greatest. 3.1.4 (signalling) traffic flow control ITU-T Q.9: Actions and procedures intended to limit signalling traffic at its source in the case when the signalling network is not capable of transferring all signalling traffic offered
35、 by the User Parts due to network failures or overload situations. 3.2 Terms defined in this Recommendation This Recommendation defines the following terms: 3.2.1 data cap: Upper limit of the total traffic volume allowed by the SLA contracted between the traffic source (e.g., ISP) and destination (e
36、.g., user). 3.2.2 fair usage: Equal treatment for the same service(s), including application(s), between different users (e.g., end-user, applications) with the same SLA. 3.2.3 heavy service traffic: Traffic level measured in the volume of specific service(s) which overloads network resources at the
37、 interface from/to service providers. It has an impact on other service traffic on the same network resource (e.g., degrading the quality). 3.2.4 heavy signalling traffic: Traffic level measured in the volume and frequency that triggers signalling traffic flow control ITU-T Q.9 (e.g., heavy traffic
38、level caused by keep-alive messages). 3.2.5 heavy user traffic: Traffic level measured in the volume of traffic initiated by an end-user who overloads network resources at the interface from/to the end-user. It affects the traffic quality of other users. 3.2.6 surge traffic: Traffic level measured i
39、n the aggregated volume initiated by multiple users which overloads network resources at special events such as an abrupt occurrence of bad weather, a particular sports or music event that attracts a high number of users, etc. 3.2.7 monopolization: Condition of network resource overloads caused by h
40、eavy service or user traffic. It affects the traffic quality of other service(s) or user(s). 3.2.8 over-sized traffic: Traffic level that is larger in volume than the recommended size for a service. The recommended volume of such a service should be identified by SLA between the traffic source and d
41、estination. It is a special case of heavy service traffic. Rec.

ITU-T Y.3042 (04/2013) 5 Conventions In this Recommendation: The keywords “is required to“ indicate a requirement which must be strictly followed and from which no deviation is permitted, if conformance to this Recommendation is to be claimed. The keywords “is prohibited
46、from“ indicate a requirement which must be strictly followed and from which no deviation is permitted, if conformance to this Recommendation is to be claimed. The keywords “is recommended“ indicate a requirement which is recommended but which is not absolutely required. Thus, this requirement need n
47、ot be present to claim conformance. The keywords “is not recommended“ indicate a requirement which is not recommended but which is not specifically prohibited. Thus, conformance with this Recommendation can still be claimed even if this requirement is present. The keywords “can optionally“ indicate
48、an optional requirement which is permissible, without implying any sense of being recommended. This term is not intended to imply that the vendors implementation must provide the option, and the feature can be optionally enabled by the network operator/service provider. Rather, it means the vendor m
49、ay optionally provide the feature and still claim conformance with this Recommendation. 6 Introduction 6.1 Motivation Developments of various smart devices (e.g., smartphones, pads, IoT devices, etc.) in user environments of IP networks combined with newly emerging services such as Smart TV, 3DTV, and network gaming have led to increases in service traffic. These smart devices require networks to allocate more resources to support requested bandwidth and various service features including
